10.19.94 TO: All 3D Studio IPAS plug-in developers and programmers FROM: Tim Forcade, Forcade & Associates RE: The 3D Studio/IPAS Visual Reference, a book & CD, from New Riders Publishing ATTENTION !!! – ALL IPAS DEVELOPERS & PROGRAMMERS We are producing a new book/CD bundle entitled The 3D Studio/IPAS Visual Reference which will be published by New Riders Publishing, Indianapolis, IN. The full color book will provide a complete visual reference to the over 200 3D Studio IPAS plug-ins along with an explanation of the outstanding capabilities, the applications, and the key variables for each plug-in. A series of full color image arrays will be used to illustrate the use of each plug-in and its associated parameters. Along with the book will be a CD-ROM based version which will permit the user to quickly locate specific effects based on search criteria such as color, texture, plug-in type, effect type, etc. The CD-ROM will also contain numerous demonstration IPAS versions along with purchase information for all IPAS plug-ins. IPAS DEVELOPERS – WE NEED YOUR HELP. In order to make this book & CD as complete as possible we need to know about you. If you or your company provides (or intends to provide in the very near future) one or more robust 3D Studio IPAS plug-ins, contact Tim Forcade A.S.A.P. Please remember, time is extremely critical, the book/CD production is moving fast!
